A raw natural diet is a combination
of fresh whole foods consisting of chunks or ground raw meat, raw
bones, vegetables and fruits. These foods are supposed to be fed to
our animals in their raw (un-cooked) natural (un-altered)
state.

For a lot of you the idea of feeding your beloved dog
or cat raw meat and raw bones seems strange, especially chicken
bones. Many of us remember growing up being told that you never ever
give a dog or cat chicken bones! It is time to dispel some of the
"old" myths.

Our carnivorous
friends anatomy and Digestive system:

1.
Veterinarians, Scientists and Archeologists agree that although
altered in outward appearance, today's dogs and cats internal
workings are fundamentally the same as their wild counterparts and
ancestors.

2. Dogs are classified as an OMNIVORE.
That means that your dog needs a wide range of food in their diet
including raw meats (including organs and fats), raw bones, fruits
and vegetables.

3. Cats are classified as a CARNIVORE.
That means that your cat needs raw meat including the muscle,
organs, stomach contents, fats and bones.

4. Look at
the dental structure of our dogs and cats. Their "fang" like teeth
are designed to rip, shred and tear. There are no flat molars to
grind food into smaller more workable pieces before swallowing (THEY
ARE NOT DESIGNED TO CHEW KIBBLE!)

5. Dogs and cats do
not have digestive enzymes in their saliva. Their saliva is designed
to lubricate large chunks of food for easy travel to the stomach.
Due to the lack of digestive enzymes in their saliva, these enzymes
MUST be present in their food. These vital enzymes are only present
in raw unaltered, uncooked food. ANY HEAT PROCESSING KILLS THESE
VITAL ENZYMES AND TAXES THE ANIMALS PANCREAS, DIGESTIVE AND IMMUNE
SYSTEM!

6. Dogs and cats have a single chambered
stomach, similar to human beings. However their intestines are half
the length of ours and their stomach acidity content is lower than
ours. This acid along with other digestive enzymes are what break
down the food matter so that the life sustaining nutrients can be
absorbed. This acidity level is also why your dogs and cats can eat
raw meat and raw bones, with little to no risk of parasitic disease.

7.Dogs and cats intestinal walls are a host to
hundreds (400) of species of bacteria and microorganisms, called
MICRO FLORA. The natural balance of your animals micro flora provide
enzymes, vitamins, minerals and helps to inhibit the growth of
disease forming bacteria, such as Salmonella and E-coli.
